Love the Currier and Ives China. Gave mine to my kids.

It's one of my wife's priced possessions. 🤣 They are Spode Blue Italian (https://www.spode.co.uk/). She went crazy on her purchases when we were stationed in England from 2000 to 2003. She collects them and has a couple of curio cabinets full of them. 😍
